Description

Step inside, and the welcoming ENTRANCE HALL is immediately uplifting, with dual aspect windows providing natural light throughout the day. Carpeted stairs rise to the first floor, with a useful understairs cupboard discreetly tucked away.

At the heart of the home is the KITCHEN/DINING ROOM—a practical and sociable space where the whole family can gather. There’s room for a range-style cooker, built-in under-counter fridge, and plenty of cupboard space. Dual aspect windows look out to the garden, and a door at the side makes life easy when coming in from the garden with muddy shoes or homegrown veg.
Just off the dining area is a UTILITY ROOM with space for appliances, a sink, and a window overlooking the garden. A door leads to a DOWNSTAIRS SHOWER ROOM with a double shower, vanity unit, W.C., and heated towel rail—ideal for busy mornings or coming in from the garden.

The SITTING ROOM is a lovely place to relax in the evening or on those wintery evenings, with a cosy multi-fuel burner and soft wall lighting. Double doors open straight out to the garden, letting you enjoy the indoor-outdoor flow on sunny days. This room connects through to a bright family room, filled with light thanks to its triple aspect windows, plenty of space for all of the family.

There’s also a separate STUDY/PLAYROOM with dual aspect windows. Whether it's homework time, home working, quiet spot to read or a spare bedroom this flexible space can adapt to whatever family life brings.

Upstairs, the landing has a window to the front and leads into a generous space with four built-in wardrobes and an airing cupboard—just what a busy household needs.

The PRINCIPAL BEDROOM is a real highlight, with triple aspect windows offering stunning views of the surrounding countryside. It has its own EN-SUITE BATHROOM with bath and shower over, W.C., vanity unit, and heated towel rail.
BEDROOM TWO comes with a rear-facing window and built-in wardrobe, while BEDROOM THREE also has built-in storage, dual aspect windows, and access to the loft. BEDROOM FOUR could also be used as an office, it has dual aspect windows but working in here may be distracting due to the beautiful countryside view.

The FAMILY BATHROOM is a good size, with a bath and shower over, vanity unit, W.C., heated towel rail, tiled walls, and a window to the front. There’s also another airing cupboard for extra storage.

Outside
Set behind a gated driveway, this much-loved home offers a sense of calm from the moment you arrive. Surrounded by established trees, lawned gardens, and thoughtfully placed borders, it’s easy to imagine family life here.
There’s plenty of space for children to run around, a generous lawn for garden games, summer picnics, or even a trampoline. Raised beds and a greenhouse offer the chance to grow your own, and a wooden summer house provides a lovely spot for relaxing—or could even make an excellent garden office. There’s also a wooden workshop, a log shed, potting areas, and an outside tap and light. Whether you’re a keen gardener, DIY enthusiast, or simply love to potter outside, this South facing garden offers something for everyone.
The reduce sized garage has light, power, a side window, and overhead storage—ideal for bikes, tools, or a home gym setup.

To the very front of the home lies a separate parcel of land, laid to lawn and centred around a striking mature tree, which is protected by a Tree Preservation Order (TPO)—adding both beauty and significance to the setting.

Location
This home enjoys a peaceful position on the rural fringes of the village of Musbury, perfectly placed for both countryside living and easy access to nearby towns, coastlines, and commuter routes. Musbury offers the charm of village life with excellent local amenities, including a garage with a shop, traditional pub, well-regarded primary school, and the picturesque parish church of St. Michael.
Just three miles to the north lies the vibrant market town of Axminster, offering mainline railway station with direct services to London Waterloo
To the south-east, approximately five miles away, is the seaside town of Lyme Regis, renowned for its historic Cobb harbour, fossil-rich beaches, and lively arts and dining scene.
Families will also appreciate proximity to some of the region’s top educational institutions, most notably the highly acclaimed Colyton Grammar School—one of the country’s leading mixed state schools—located just 2.5 miles away on the edge of the neighbouring village of Colyford.

The DOMVS Approach to Selling Property

We always start with a clear strategy. We take time to understand your home, the local market and buyer behaviour, ensuring pricing and positioning are right from the outset. Every step in the process is meticulously considered, from presentation and marketing through to negotiation and completion.

We get that no two homes are the same, and neither is the way they should be launched. We tailor the approach to suit the property, whether that is a full market launch, an ‘offers over’ strategy or a discreet introduction through our Whisper List. Our role is to generate the right level of interest and convert that into a successful sale.

Once a sale is agreed, our dedicated sales progression team works proactively with all parties to resolve issues early and maintain momentum. This combination of preparation, negotiation and progression is what protects your sale and delivers results.

Our approach is shaped by three core values: integrity, empathy and determination. We give clear, honest advice, understand the personal nature of moving, and remain focused on securing the strongest outcome for our clients.

Our Marketing

Every property benefits from professional photography, carefully written descriptions and, where appropriate, enhanced visuals such as drone footage or virtual staging. This is supported by our in-house marketing team, who deliver targeted campaigns designed to reach an engaged and relevant audience. Our sellers benefit from:

• A fully optimised website attracting an average of 20,500 visitors each month

• Targeted email and digital campaigns to a database of over 20,000 engaged subscribers

• Social media activity generating over 60,000 monthly views and thousands of website visits
